Joe Mann’s Story

I have witnessed your enthusiasm, conviction for the positive, and belief in our industry several times over the years. Your attitude and “will not be denied” focus has feed my own flagging efforts just when I needed it.

The story you told last year in Spokane about your husband’s retirement from Boeing and his rehiring let me know that the end of the “housing crisis” was near in Washington. That was a real, factual account of why it was important to hang in the business. Things always get better.

Whether I win any prize or not, thank you for the role you play in everyone’s life you touch.
